Hey teamRIPPED!
How was your week? I was thankful that none of the serious storms and tornadoes came close to us in Tulsa. And my heart broke for the people in Moore, OK who were devastated by a mile-wide F5 twister. I said at the time on FB, “As we mourn and grieve in the wake of the Moore, OK tragedy, may we also cling even tighter to the hope and promise of the coming day when He will make all things new and the curse will be no more. Pray fervently.” The amazing stories of people helping people and people loving their neighbors have been awesome.
Kevin Wayne Durant, star of the Oklahoma City Thunder who has a really cool middle name, immediately gave $1 Million dollars to the Red Cross within hours of the tragedy. Even cooler is the fact that he didn’t announce it. It was the Red Cross that announced the donation. Things like that make me proud to root for him and the Thunder. Classy! If only I could convince KD to do Body Beast in the off-season so he can bang down low with the big fellas! LOL.
True character of an individual or a community comes out not during the good times, but during the bad times. It makes me proud to be an Oklahoman.
I am so excited that today marks the final day of school for my kiddos! That means my morning routine gets a little easier. I don’t have to help with homework, backpacks, waking the kids up and doing breakfast for them. They get to chill out a little, and that translates directly to some extra time for mom and dad in the morning. I’m a creature of habit, so I’ll keep getting up at the same time and following my usual routine, but I’ll make use of the extra time by trying to read through more of our challenge group comments and taking more workout Instagram pics. It always throws off my rhythm during a workout to set up my camera to snap a photo. I seriously don’t know how people post IG pics of their workout montage every morning. Do they actually workout or do they just pose for pics!! LOL!

And 2 favors that I ask:

2) Also, as always, remember that the way I benefit from being your coach is that I earn a commission from any Beachbody products that you purchase, as long as you buy them through my site, www.teamRIPPED.com, or by logging in to www.teambeachbody.com to do your shopping (If you buy from the plain beachbody site I get no credit).
